New Life Island

New Life Island provides kids with an unforgettable week-long experience on a beautiful island in the Delaware River. Our overnight Christian Summer Camp gives children the opportunity to enjoy exciting camp activities like high ropes, swimming, boating, downriver tubing, archery, gel blasters, campfires, night games, and so much more – all in the great outdoors. Campers will also learn teamwork, trust, and other valuable life lessons from interacting with our amazing, hand-picked staff.  

We run 5 weeks of camp (Sunday-Friday), with tailored programs for each age group: Junior (8-10), Junior High (11-13), Teens (13-18), and Adventure (14-18), as well as a Junior Mini program for kids who want to give camp a try. Adventure Camp involves more intense programming, including real rock climbing, a 20-mile canoe trip, and access to our entire high ropes course. No matter what program your child attends, we do everything we can to make it the best week of their entire summer! 

We typically have around 80 campers each week, which is big enough to have exciting activities, but small enough to know your child’s name. Kids sleep in a cabin with about 8 campers and 2 staffers, and your child can request 2 cabinmates. We offer early bird and sibling discounts, and if finances are a problem, you may apply for a camper scholarship. Find more information at nli.org, and for some camp videos, look us up on YouTube! 

New Life Island is a Christian camp focused on character development in young hearts and minds. We teach our campers truth from the Bible, and help to instill foundational character building blocks such as honesty, compassion, and kindness. When camp is over, we hope your child leaves with great memories and changed for the better. That is why we say, “No one leaves the same.”
